What Happens During a CIPP Lining Repair? Step-by-Step Guide

CIPP drain lining repair process with resin liner installation and inspection equipment used for drain repairs in Southampton.

Table of Contents

When it comes to drain repairs in Southampton, CIPP (Cured-In-Place Pipe) lining is one of the most effective and non-disruptive solutions available. It allows damaged drains to be repaired without excavation, saving homeowners and businesses both time and money.

Here’s a detailed breakdown of how the process works and what to expect when you book a CIPP lining repair with Southampton Drains24.

🧾 Step 1: Initial Drain Inspection

Before any work begins, a CCTV drain survey is carried out to assess the condition of your drains. This allows our engineers to pinpoint the location of cracks, fractures, or corrosion, and to confirm that CIPP lining is the right repair method.

High-definition camera footage helps create a detailed drainage report, including recommendations for repairs and long-term maintenance.

🧰 Step 2: Drain Cleaning & Preparation

Once the damage has been assessed, the affected section of pipe must be thoroughly cleaned. Using high-pressure water jetting, we remove scale, debris, grease, and root intrusions to ensure the liner can bond properly to the pipe walls.

Any remaining buildup can affect the adhesion of the liner, so this step is crucial for the repair’s success.

🧵 Step 3: Liner Preparation

A resin-saturated felt liner is then measured, cut, and prepared to the exact length of the damaged section. The liner is impregnated with a two-part epoxy resin designed to harden and form a tough, watertight surface once cured.

This liner effectively acts as a new pipe within your existing one — durable, smooth, and leak-free.

🔄 Step 4: Inversion & Installation

The liner is inserted into the damaged pipe using an air inversion system or water pressure method, depending on the site and pipe layout. Once in place, the liner is inflated so it fits tightly against the inner walls of the original pipe, sealing any cracks or leaks instantly.

🔥 Step 5: Curing the Resin

To solidify the liner, hot water or steam is circulated through the pipe. This process, known as curing, allows the resin to harden fully — forming a robust, jointless, and corrosion-resistant new pipe.

Once cured, the liner restores the drain’s structural integrity and eliminates infiltration or exfiltration issues.

📹 Step 6: Final CCTV Inspection

After curing, a final CCTV drain inspection is performed to ensure the lining has set correctly and the flow has been fully restored. This step provides peace of mind that your repaired drain will perform like new for decades to come.
